A larger reservoir will allow you to refill it less frequently and a bigger tray will let you use tall travel mugs as well as shorter espresso cups.

Capsules

Most single-serve coffee machines use a capsule or pod system to brew the drink. Unlike traditional drip coffee or French press pods are pre-packaged containers that contain ground coffee and a filter. When inserted in a machine that is compatible the pods are placed in the brewing chamber to extract the flavor using hot water under pressure. This method produces a more concentrated and consistent cup of coffee when compared to drip brew.

These systems are practical and allow you to prepare multiple cups at the same time. This might seem like an inconvenience for those who prefer drinking only one cup, but it could be a huge benefit for those who host guests or want to be capable of grabbing a caffeine fix while on the go.

Some manufacturers provide proprietary pods, which are compatible with the machines they make. Others offer a wide variety of options. Certain brands offer pods with sugar or creamers in addition to different sizes and flavors. Some also allow you to customize your brew by lowering or increasing the intensity of espresso.

Pods are made of plastic or aluminum and are covered with an outer layer to protect your hands from the elements while handling used coffee. Some pods are made to be punctured with a needle before inserting them into the brewing chamber and some even have an indicator light that will inform you when the pod has been correctly introduced. Most machines have a container for used pods, so you don't have to get them in touch.

Apart from the convenience of pods, it's essential to understand what you're getting into before purchasing a machine that uses this kind of system. The most common disadvantage is that the cost of using these kinds of coffee pods can end up being as expensive as buying a cup of coffee from a cafe or restaurant.
